We want to thank everyone who attended the 32nd Annual SACC-GA Lucia Gala at the Druid Hills Golf Club on Saturday December 16th 2017. You are the ones who made this evening special, fun and one to remember!

A special thank you goes out to our sponsors: without you we could not host this gala event. Thank you for your support of the chamber!

Thank you to all who took the time to join SACC-GA and Arnall Golden Gregory last night for a Swedish inspired holiday mingle.

Delicious saffron buns (lussebullar), gingerbread cookies and wonderful christmas candy was catered by Anna Bringle at Swedish Dreamish. We hope you all enjoyed the evening, made some new connections and/or got time to chat with friends and colleagues in the Swedish-American community.

Happy Holidays,

the SACC-GA team

SACC-GA’s wine-working 2017 took place on November 16th at the SACC-GA office space at SPACES Midtown.

Wine-guru Brandon Tai, with over 10 years experience in the industry, presented a wide variety of wines and we all tried to “taste the price”. We learned about how a fine wine tastes like it was painted with a fine brush with intricate layers of flavors, while a more inexpensive one might taste more blunt and as if the painter used wider brush strokes. It was a great evening and we wish to thank all of you who attended and participated in the tasting. We hope you enjoyed it and learned as much as we did!

World Trade Center Atlanta held it’s Monthly Spotlight themed “Sweden and the U.S. – Blending the best of both cultures” on October 19th.

We also got to hear a great panel discussion on differences and similarities between Swedish and American business culture. Thank you to Ivan Turk, representing SACC-GA corporate member Nefab, for giving us your perspective on the pro’s and con’s of working in a Swedish company in the US.

SACC-GA and Kellogg Partners would like to thank everyone who attended our networking event themed “What’s Next On The BeltLine?” on Wednesday October 4th. We hope you enjoyed the evening and learned something new about the most comprehensive revitalization effort ever undertaken in the City of Atlanta.
